Straight Outta Compton follows the rise of legendary hip hop group NWA (made up of members Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, MC Ren and DJ Yella), who, in 1987, put their frustration and anger about life in the most dangerous place in America into the most powerful weapon they had: their music.

Ice Cube's son O'Shea Jackson Jr. stars as his famous dad in the movie, and he got the ultimate stamp of approval on premiere night in downtown Los Angeles.

"He got everything right," Ice Cube told ET. "When we was editing this movie, at certain points I was thinking we was looking at the young NWA."
